Sebastian Fisher
To be fair, there was a print of a a good storm card recently
Owen Murphy
The feeling of blowing up the green players entire land base because they ramped so much is amazing
Camden Phillips
There's a difference between the guy who MLDs when he has mana rocks and creatures and the guy who blindly slams Armageddon turn 4 as often as he can.
MLD should be a tool, but it's ruined by the shitters who treat it as an endgoal.
Eli Morales
You're playing into the Titania player's hand.
William Cox
>playing MLD when Titania is on the field
Christopher Davis
Ell Oh Ell
David Mitchell
The difference is that Resevoir has to be on the board when you start, rather than just storming your way into it. It's a lot less broken.
Brody Davis
I'm not noticing "Instant" anywhere on there.
Jonathan Torres
>The difference is that Resevoir has to be on the board when you start, rather than just storming your way into it. It's a lot less broken.
i think you need to read the card again
Daniel Rogers
So?
Xavier Reed
i think the idea is, they are still fucked by MLD, if they have to get back to 4 mana before they can cast this
Jackson Hernandez
I'm not sure if I'm in the right here, so I'm asking here. >LGS hosts a weekly commander tournament >finally off work when it starts, decide to come. >Friends had told me it was a more aggressive deck kind of game, so I bring my best deck. >First pod is casual.dec on every other player, i feel really mean for just beating up on them. >Finals ends by going infinite turn 4 I just feel like an asshole you know? My friends all play more powerful decks, so when they said it was a competitive type match I believed them. Deck was Selvala.
Evan Robinson
Yeah no. You can storm all day and get it out and then gain like 100 life from Brainstorm
Ryder Taylor
If his landbase is in his grave, how does he cast it?
Dominic Johnson
If you draw and cast it twelve spells in, you missed 12 life gain triggers. That makes it a lot harder to go off, compared to the only important part about Storm spells being casting them last.
Asher Gray
This is why I play Selesnya
Brayden Anderson
>competitive >commander >tournament
these seem like words that shouldn't ever go together...
Isaac Turner
Sounds like they wanted you to put the fear into some chumps, user.
Henry Barnes
Mana rocks. Be Omnath. Have four more lands and ways to get them out because you're green. And then cast it and laugh at the MLD player because for four mana his symmetrical wipe went entirely against him.
Jaxon Morgan
You have no responsibility to hold back in any competitive event.
Joseph Price
Alright, if we're playing magical Christmas land and just pointing out cards that counter other cards, let's say the MLD player also hits you with a Bojuka Bog. Let me guess, now you happen to have a Witchbane Orb?
Samuel Ortiz
>Armageddon is the only MLD spell
Landon Price
It's not magical Christmas land to have a few more lands or 4 mana in rocks. If I really wanted to play pretend I'd have said I had a Vedalken Orrery.
Jaxson Hall
It's magical Christmas land to act like you'll have Splendid Reclamation any time there's MLD.
Bentley Ramirez
It's magical Christmas land to act like you'll have MLD whenever another player builds a strong land base and that it'll actually be helpful to use.
Isaiah Miller
right but each life gain trigger is bigger than the last, using your example of 12 spells in, you only need to cast 5 more spells to have gained that much life
also missing 12 triggers seems unlikely, if its in your deck and youre going off, you probably tutor it earlier on than that
just comparing to other storm spells, it seems about as good as any of them except mind's desire, but you want to mind's desire into more storm spells and aetherflux reservoir anyway
Matthew Brown
look at this guy, posting from 2008
guess what, after obama, we elected donald trump! what a shocker
Jose Robinson
There are like a dozen MLD spells vs. 1 Splendid Reclamation.
There's also Praetor's Counsel, Life from the Loam, and Crucible of Worlds.
Jordan Diaz
This isn't over. If you disagree, then you have no understanding of the blitzkrieg maneuver.
Carter Kelly
also faith's reward and second sunrise and boros charm
they arent usually that great but if you see a lot of MLD and/or your deck doesnt like getting board wiped, they can be pretty good
alternatively, you run them WITH mld
Lincoln Walker
>Praetor's Council >As an answer to MLD
And this is supposed to be your argument for saying you're not living in a magical Christmas land? If you have 8 mana to blow on Praetor's Council after MLD, I don't think you're really needing to "recover".
Blake Diaz
MAYBE HE DOESN'T LIKE A FURFAG CIRCLEJERK SHITHOLE THAT SCREAMS ABOUT SHELDON ALL DAY
Aiden Phillips
>Pssh, don't you get it kid? Magic is just war writ small. You and I are generals, and I'll show no mercy, even with my last breath. You should do likewise.
Caleb Fisher
Second Sunrise might as well just be Cancel in that scenario.
Anyone here get backwards life clickers in their Commander's Anthology? Two of them came backwards and I sent an email to wizards so I will see if anything comes from it.
Justin Wright
>backwards
in what way?
Bentley Watson
Turn it upside down?
Samuel Sanchez
What is some good card draw tec for BUG Sidisi that interacts with her whole graveyard schtick?
Adrian Scott
If you MLD to win the game, fine.
If you MLD to make a game take 8 hours then fuck you.
Juan Perez
>funnest color Multi-color. If I had to absolutely pick only one it would be a tie between Black and Red. Which is hilarious as I'm not much of a fan of BR decks. It's just when I play something the primary color is usually B or R. And on the rare occasions it isn't, B or R are making appearances as supporting color(s).
I can play this game too.
Brandon Parker
>TFW you only own the shitty flavor text version
I really need to get the regular version.
Jackson Nguyen
>Random player drops Jhoira deck >ohherewego.jpg >"It's not like other Jhoira decks! Trust me!" >Apocalypse, Eldrazi Titans, etc. are suddenly suspended >Table's face

best feel
Connor Rogers
Two of my spinners were manufactured with the two of the same side so one side is always upside down and backwards.
Lol. I wish it was a case of me being more retarded then buying wizards products.
Jaxon Diaz
>Adds incremental value to storm decks >less broken. What did he mean by this
Jacob Bell
Don't worry OP. I'll make sure to put it back in the next opening post for the next thread. It's okay you forgot it. Mistakes happen.
Anyone care to check out my casual/budget Lord of Tresserhorn deck? Did I miss any cool tech?
Benjamin Thompson
I didn't forget it, I got rid of it because it's cancer.
Nathan Evans
>discord included >no one cares >discord excluded >discord fag throw a hissy fit and drag everyone down with them wtf i love discord now
Wyatt Adams
I bet the discord spitescoops too
Nolan Hill
When the special kids want to sit at the table in the corner of the cafeteria, you let them.
Besides isn't it just a chatroom?
Owen Phillips
Why are you such a salty faggot? Go circlejerk elsewhere
Anthony Smith
>people getting butthurt about Discord Just put it in the general and then nobody fucking talks about it.
Colton White
Fuck off, just cause one discordfag has been using the general to advertise it doesn't mean it needs to be added.
David Watson
It doesn't change anything you lil fag
Fag boy
Lil bitch boy
Wyatt Jenkins
>remove discord and one autist tards out so let's add it from now on to make him happy
Justin Price
The discord is full of furries and actual autists, if you want those people on Veeky Forums feel free
Ayden Baker
Shit man, fuck that, instead let's have this retarded discussion every thread
Michael Russell
How does everyone feel about quitting after an opponent makes a fatal play on you? It rustles my Johnnies when I have to hear shit like "well you don't get to life link because I actually just quit."
Joshua Walker
Discord, scooping of the tactical nature, and sheldon manta ray. Sol ring and mana crypt, mass land destruction, and the ban list for commander. I fear we actually am become the ausstie. There is only one thing we can do to save us.
We must create rules for The Commander Club, or TCC.
Brayden Jenkins
Please don't.
Alexander Nelson
It"s ironic that the discord only gets mentioned in the threads where someone removes it from the OP out of ass anguish. Some cancer it must be to not even be mentioned in 80+% of the threads since its creation.
Robert Thomas
Which commander would be best for RPing Pegasus? The choices are pedophiles, cartoony creatures or "look at opponents hand" effects. Alhammaret?
Mason Nguyen
The discord has over 70 users. You can let go of the notion that it isn't used by the majority of the posters in this general. Hell most threads don't even get 70 unique posters.
Tyler Allen
What I use it to win the game, but it also takes 8 hours?
Adrian Kelly
You forgot Bryanposting.
Justin Allen
>join the discord >see two LITERAL furfags arguing about the spirit of EDH >swooce on out Has it gotten any better?
William Rogers
I dunno. I don"t use it that often but a great deal of others do so I include it in the OP. When I've been on I haven't seen this rampant furfag issue and it's mostly been discussing deck tech or upcoming sets like they're doing right now.
Easton Cruz
It looks fun. I've always wanted to build a Tresserhorn deck. A lot of people like to go zombie tribal with him. Others like to do voltron with some cheap evasion enchants/equips and others like to run infect/double strike effects to one shot with him.
You need Rooftop Storm.
Luke Williams
I know that feel user. LGS has an EDH FNM, came expecting a good challenge for my Breya deck, instead I ended up just going Winter Orb into Soulscour and killing the table in a handful of turns with Tezz 6 ult and Breya activations. Thinking I'll go back to Sydri which is slightly less potent but more fun and challenging to play both with and against.
Joseph Bennett
what's a deck that doesn't mind not attacking but doesn't tend to hold big hands? a deck where pic related is good without specific support
Carson Edwards
Purphuros maybe, creature based combo in general.
Matthew Stewart
The perfect deck for this is ghonti, lord of luxury.
Jeremiah Hill
No, we do not negotiate with terrorists. If your chatroom is so shit it can't exist without trying to leech from edhg it deserves to die off.
Oliver Murphy
i've actually played a gonti deck and i usually end up holding a big hand AND winning through combat damage, so... maybe not that
Ryan Thompson
What cards specifically should I remove from the CMA precons? I've heard Kaalia's deck is a mess.
Caleb Collins
Are you even able to be legally unsupervised? Really I'm curious, where have you ever heard someone say this juvenile dribble and sound intimidating/threatening/menacing or even correct. I mean the discordfags are annoying and mildly spergy, but you went full retard right here friendo and certainly are hurting your cause more than helping.
Jayden Wright
what, like to make the decks good? it's usually best to take the precon apart completely and build around the commander.
Jackson Gray
Remove all cards but command towers, Sol ring and lightning greaves from kaalia. Rebuild stronger
Tyler Garcia
Who here runs discard? What flavour of discard do you run and how effective is it?
Evan Barnes
You can pair that with Bottled Cloister and not worry about your hand size.
Carson Campbell
i know there are cards like that that synergize really well, but i prefer my cards i play with to be good on their own without needing support like i mentioned before.
Joshua Nelson
It's not. Fact is that with 4 players and most discard only targeting one at a time, my Greel discard deck is sorta shit. I've had more success with Jin Gitaxias but he has a tendency to hose exactly one person and then get removed.
Nathaniel Nelson
i like discard only if it's part of my win condition (megrim, liliana's caress, waste not) because i know how shitty it can be to discard your hand early on. it's generally unfun to play against if tuned well, and i have the most fun when my opponents are having fun too.
Luis Baker
I run discard as a mana dump to take a player out of the game, ala Mind Twist and Mind Shatter.
Adam Martin
I run hand size dependant wheels as my discard, I find thoughtseize type effects are too dependant on meta knowledge in my playgroup compared to how open and generic the wheels are.
Jayden Murphy
Mindclaw Shaman and Sin Collector are fantastic in my Alesha deck.
Nolan Ramirez
I can't recall exactly what all goes in Kaalias' but it wasn't too bad IIRC. I believe I only had to replace a few instants/sorceries, some creatures, and rework the mana/land base to get it running how I like. It did come with Oni of Wild Places which is fucking awesome for bouncing things back to your hand so you can get those sweet ETB triggers.
That said, you could absolutely build a better deck by getting Kaalia second hand and then using/buying what you need to optimize the deck.
You'll also get replies like and because precons are usually okay at best. They are usually only balanced against other precons. That said, if you look over the deck list and see a lot of shit you don't have, you should consider how much buying the precon will cost you vs buying those cards separately. I know for a fact that if there was a precon with Noble Hierarch in it, I'd buy that shit in a second.
